Sew Much Fun

Love handiwork? Then Chelle’s Creations  Sew Crafty digital scrapbook kit and Sew Crafty Word Art are for you...they contain everything you need to scrap your sewing/knitting/crocheting/needlework hobby. I come from a long line of crafty women so this kit is perfect kit for me.


Here we have photos from a new generation of my family who love needle crafts. Shanna Paxton, Alex’s au pair, taught her how to make felt artwork. The end results are fabulous. Thanks Shanna.

Thanks for stopping by.

Dance to the Music

Happy Halloween everyone.  I hope you have a not-so-spooky day.  We have our candy purchased, the pumpkins carved, and will just have to wait until it gets dark for the doorbell to ring non-stop for a few hours.
Today I made a fun page with Sugary Fancy’s Music and Love kit.  Do you love music?!  This kit is perfect for you!  It is about music and love in our life!  I hope you get inspired with it!!  It comes with 10 papers and 60 elements.  You also may like Music & Love Add On and Music & Life Alpha!

Here we have Dave and Nicole dancing,  How fun.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great Halloween.

Vrooom!!

The title to the kit says it all Vrooom! Chelle’s Creations kit is perfect for that little speedster in your life. I love the colors, so bright and bold. Notice the word art at the bottom-instant titles for your page-too easy.



Connor is putting together and then smashing his traffic jam puzzle.  No, he is not 6’2”, nor does he weigh 185 pounds.  I guess I will have to measure him before this goes to print.

Thanks for stopping by and have a smashing day.

Chelle’s Creative Team

Last week I was selected to be on Chelle’s Creations creative team. Lucky, lucky me. She makes adorable kits, just perfect for scrapping one’s grandchildren. Chelle designs for Scrap Orchard.  You can find her store here. Check out Chelle’s blog  where you can find all kinds of fun and freebies.
Here is the first kit I chose to work with.  I have a kagillion photos of Alex dancing, so I figured this was a great place to start.  Tutu Cute is too too cute. Check out these wonderful designs.





Alex is practicing one of her dance moves below.

Tomorrow I will be back with Vroom! Thanks for stopping by.

Spider Battle

Connor decided the Power Ranger mask was just much cooler than the skeleton mask. He loves to play dress up and was in top form to battle the giant spider that crept his way!

Harvest Moon Halloween by Samantha Walker 2 spooky embellishments and 4 swirly frames perfect for Halloween. There are faux chipboard words, and lots of spooky Halloween icons. This kit is sure to be a hit with your little goblins.  It coordinates with her Harvest Moon series.

Next we have a wonderful Christmas kit, Holly Jolly Christmas to look at. I made a Christmas invitation for Nicole with it.

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas with Echo Park Hybrids Holly Jolly Christmas series. This adorable collection is full of 28 papers, 34 elements, 32 tags and journaling cards. Added to that there are  2 alphas, a set of ornament layers, and 14 borders.

Super Power: Melts Hearts

I saw the little journaling block for the All American Super Hero  kit by Plum Dumpling Designs and just fell in love with it.  Great news-this month the kit is 30% off at ScrapMatters. Our little super hero, Connor has a magnificent power to melt hearts.  Here he is in his look at my muscles mode.

Do you have little (or big!!) heroes running around? Whether they are in costumes, pajamas or dressed as their secret identity, this kit will showcase those super photos! All American Superhero is packed with fun, comic elements and word art to dress up those LOs in true superhero fashion.

I hope you have a super-powered Friday.
